The challenge

The project began with the ambitious goal of creating a competitor to Calendly. Initially envisioned as a media platform, the client pivoted to develop an online scheduling tool for corporate use. The main challenge was penetrating the B2B market, where companies viewed such tools as necessary instruments rather than optional conveniences.

At the project onset, the client needed the final tool their startup was missing to switch to the B2B scene and start growing their business. Such a time-keeping instrument was to connect other features like an online calling platform, event organization, and analytics into a comprehensive platform that would create value in corporate environments. On top of that, the client needed it fast.

Pivots

The project underwent several iterations and pivots. Initially targeted at weddings and events, the team recognized the shifting landscape due to COVID-19 and the increasing digitization of events. This led to a pivot towards creating a tool for online events. Another vital iteration was integrating Microsoft 365, vital for the big-business environment.

The Insight

While pivoting the project, we realized that existing corporate scheduling tools lacked customization options and often struggled with diverse calendars, time zones, and security needs. This insight prompted the decision to develop a more tailored solution specifically addressing security concerns and integrations.

Functionality

The resulting product offers a customizable scheduling platform designed with corporate needs in mind. It provides enhanced security features, access control, and seamless integration with popular collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams.

The final platform version can:

  • Send invitations and materials to all participants;
  • Save the appointment to the user calendar;
  • Create a virtual room for an online meeting;
  • Send out reminders one hour before the meeting;
  • Share the saved meeting video with all participants if it was recorded.
